HC Deb 07 February 1985 vol 72 cc672-3W
Mr. Willie W. Hamilton

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what gross unearned income would be needed to provide a net annual income of £200,000, £400,000, £500,000 and £600,000, respectively, assuming the taxpayer is married with two dependent children aged under 11 years; and what were the comparable figures in each of the last four years.

Mr. Moore

The information for a married man with two dependent children is in the table, which assumed that no tax relief or allowance, other than the married man's allowance, is available. Figures have been rounded to the nearest £10.
